ter it is believed that the next turn
will be upward rather than down ward.
When that turn will come is the problem.
Some irregularity IN demand is reported,
fiue fieeces receiving more attention than
medium in certain markets, and less in

the trade has been an unusual demand for
black wool, resulting in an advance OF &c
